Why do I need a vitamin c antioxidant serum?
Think of an apple, cut in half and exposed to the air.
It will quickly go brown and bad.
If you dipped it in lemon juice it wouldn't.
Lemon juice is rich in Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) which prevents oxidation thus stopping the apple from going bad.
Our faces are exposed to air, pollution, UV in day-light (not just sun-shine) and HEVL blue light from phone and computers and our own oxygen waste products from breathing and stress.
All of these factors conspire to turn skin "bad" and speed up our ageing process - think of it as human rust.
Antioxidant serums prevent this from happening.

Smooth, Lift & Brighten Eye Cream with Gentle-Release Vitamin A
Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye Cream is available in three different strengths:
0.03%, and 0.06%. and 0.10%
The strength you choose will depend on your skin type and concerns. If you're new to retinol, I recommend starting with the lowest strength and gradually increasing as your skin tolerates it.
How to Use Medik8 CRYSTAL RETINAL CERAMIDE EYE CREAMS
To use the Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye Cream, apply a small amount to your ring finger and gently pat around the eye area. Use in the evening after cleansing and toning, and before your moisturiser.
Start by using it twice a week and gradually increase as your skin tolerates it.
Changes to Expect with Medik8 CRYSTAL RETINAL CERAMIDE EYE CREAMS
With regular use of the Medik8 Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye Cream, you can expect to see a reduction in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circles.
Your skin will appear plump, hydrated, and youthful, with a smoother texture and more even tone.
It's important to note that results may vary depending on the individual and the severity of their concerns.
Awaken to Youthful-Looking Eyes
The all-in-one, ceramide-infused eye cream is designed to be everything your under eyes need in your evening skincare regime. Proven to deliver fast overnight plumping results, with visible smoothing of signs of ageing which become more profound over time.
94% showed a clinical improvement to the look of wrinkles around the eyes with just ONE use
How to Apply Medik8 CRYSTAL RETINAL CERAMIDE EYE CREAMS
Twin-Encapsulated Retinaldehyde
Proven to work up to 11 times faster than retinol, retinaldehyde targets the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, discolouration and uneven skin texture. A twin-encapsulation delivery system produces an ultra-slow release, gradient effect of retinal in the skin to ensure equal power and gentleness.
Ceramides
Found naturally in the skin’s barrier, ceramides easily penetrate the skin to infuse the delicate eye area with rich nourishment, comfort and support.
Hyaluronic Acid Filling Spheres
A breakthrough form of hyaluronic acid that is able to fill in and smooth the look of fine lines and wrinkles, and expand within the depth of the wrinkle to give the appearance of plumpness.
Chamomile Extract
Chamomile extract (also known as bisabolol) is a natural antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties that helps to support and visibly calm delicate skin to ensure optimal comfort during use.
After cleansing in the evening, apply Crystal Retinal Ceramide Eye around the eye area, avoiding eyelids.

Medik8 C-Tetra and C-Tetra Luxe serums are formulated with Tetrahexyldecyl Ascorbate, a powerful and stable form of vitamin C. This supercharged antioxidant not only neutralises free radicals but also stimulates collagen synthesis to reduce fine lines and promote a firmer, more youthful look.
Together with vitamin E, these serums form a “network antioxidant” system, offering enhanced protection and a healthy, glowing complexion throughout the day.
Why Choose Medik8 C-Tetra Serums?
- Advanced formulas for daily radiance and long-term skin health
- Perfect for all skin types, including sensitive skin

Medik8 Press and Glow Tonic

Medik8 Press & Glow – Active Exfoliating Tonic for a Smooth, Radiant Complexion
Medik8 Press & Glow is an active, exfoliating toner that gives you a smooth, fresh, glowing complexion without flaking or irritation. Designed to deliver visible radiance while remaining gentle on the skin, this skincare tonic uses next-generation polyhydroxy acid (PHA) technology to offer effective exfoliation with minimal risk of sensitivity.
Why Choose Press & Glow?
The core exfoliating ingredient is gluconolactone (PHA 5.5%), a gentle but effective skin exfoliating acid—offering the benefits of surface cell renewal without the irritation commonly associated with more aggressive acids such as glycolic or salicylic.
Proven to be super hydrating—addressing flaky, sensitised skin that can occur after traditional exfoliating acids.
Press & Glow enables better penetration of active ingredients like vitamin C and A by gently exfoliating the surface of your skin.
With improved skin texture and enhanced radiance, make-up sits beautifully on the smoother skin surface.
Suitable for everyday use, twice a day—even for sensitive skins. No more worrying about daily irritation from your exfoliation tonic.
Key Benefits at a Glance
Gentle daily exfoliation: Uses PHA, not AHA/BHA (no glycolic or salicylic acid) – ideal for those looking for advanced exfoliation without irritation.
Smooths skin texture & brightens skin-tone: Clinically proven to improve skin glow by approximately 20 % in four weeks and deliver smoother, more even skin surface.
Hydration and barrier support: The PHA Gluconolactone also acts as a humectant, drawing in moisture rather than stripping the skin.
Enhances performance of other actives: Use in tandem with vitamin A or vitamin C serums for improved efficacy.
Ideal for sensitive skin: Clinically shown to be gentle, even on sensitive skin types—96 % of sensitive skin users agreed it was gentle with no stinging.
While this formula is designed for twice-daily use, if you are new to exfoliation consider starting once a day and building up as tolerated.
Suitable For
All skin types — including normal, dry, oily and combination.
Those with sensitive, easily irritated skin who still want the benefits of exfoliation.
Anyone looking to smooth skin texture, boost radiance and prepare skin for better absorption of active treatments.
Users who currently avoid acids due to dryness and flaking — Press & Glow offers a gentler alternative to glycolic or salicylic acid toners.
Active Ingredients in Press & Glow Tonic
5.5% Gluconolactone (PHA) – gently exfoliates and hydrates the skin surface.
Prickly Pear Extract – natural enzyme exfoliation for renewal of skin surface cells.
Acai Extract – helps calm the skin and protect against free-radical damage.
Aloe Vera Leaf Juice – soothes the skin and enhances moisture retention.

Awaken dull, tired eyes and banish puffiness and dark circles with this brightening under eye tinted formula. It's natural mineral pigments and illuminating particles work to disperse to brighten and re-awaken.
Mineral Pigments: Instantly illuminating, mineral pigments lift and neutralise darkness under the eyes for an instant awakening effect.
Cucumber Extract: Cooling and refreshing, cucumber extract helps to quench the skin’s thirst, especially important for the delicate under-eye area prone to dehydration.
Red Algae Extract: Helps to minimise the appearance of puffiness underneath the eyes - both short term and long term.
Hyaluronic Acid: Able to hold up to 1000 times its own weight in water, hyaluronic acid sinks easily into the skin where it draws moisture to itself, leaving the under-eye area both hydrated and supple.
